The news that Alicia is still alive has finally reached Bryan's ears.
How could that be happening?! Didn't Alicia fall from a height of nearly 15 feet in the middle of the high seas?! That doesn't make any sense!
Bryan laughed madly, he who always put forward logic does not believe that miracles exist. Although Alicia did not die instantly, saving her when the ferocious waves in the middle of the night was absolutely impossible.
Who was that man who jumped into the sea? Bryan thought it over seriously and could not find the answer. There were no friends Alicia didn't know. From college friends, cousins, even to business colleagues from Alicia's family, Bryan knows it all.
"Find out about the man close to Alicia now." Bryan gave the order. He was in the basement, not allowed to go out for 3 days because he had beaten his cousin until his organs were damaged and entered the ER.
"Okay, young master." The man in the black suit moved at the command of Bryan, a obedient dog. The door closes and locks it from the outside.
This basement is a 'torture' room'. There are many tools for punishing. Such as ropes to tie, chains, whips, and various other tool tools that could make the incoming person shudder in horror.
Of course this is part of the dark side of the Damian Group, every company needs a place like this to execute traitors. The cold place, the dim light, and the rancid smell of blood. Make mental health slowly eroded.
Haa... Does Bryan deserve to be here? Even the master of the Damian group who was his own parents did not care about the reason. Though his son almost died, they instead said that Bryan was weak because he was unable to control his emotions.
Bryan laughed blankly, he wanted the old man to die soon.
*tok tok tok (The sound of the door is knocked)
"Bryan, mama bring food." the door was opened again, a middle-aged woman followed by the maid behind her carrying a tray of bread and milk.
Bryan invited Damian Group's great mistress to enter, sitting in an iron chair.
There was no look of worry, no look of sadness because his son was treated unfairly.
Haa... Bryan sighed. He will be a target again.
*Plac
"Why don't you obey me? I told you not to make trouble, right?!"
That one slap doesn't mean anything to Bryan.
Yeah, it was his fault. He lost control thinking that Alicia was dead. Naturally her mother was angry because her cousin demanded to bring Bryan to the legal line.
"I'm sorry..." Bryan answered flatly. There was no regret on his face.
"Crazy kid?! Don't know it's lucky! Do you think you can act all you want?!"
Her mother's breath was wheezing, repeatedly hitting Bryan's face with a fist. No matter if the face is bruised.
"Did you know that the bastard has been given an important position in the company?! He's already stolen a lot of attention from your papa!"
Bryan was silent, receiving all the words full of wrath from his mother.
"What if you lose your position?! You're not ashamed of your friend?! Do you want me to die of madness?! Sia gave birth to a trash child like you!"
*Buk buk buk
"Mrs.. is enough madam, the young master has already realized his mistake." The waiter behind his mother tried to stop his mistress.
"Haah... If you do that again, I'll punish you myself!"
Damian Group's great madam was leaving the basement. It left Bryan staring blankly at the marble floor. Bryan spat out blood, his inner lips injured.
"I'll bring you cold water so that it doesn't swell, young master."
Miris is his life. Only cared for by a servant. Now the one who conceived her and gave birth to her became the one who often stuck a thorn in her heart. Killing Bryan's humanity bit by bit.
Bryan laughed blankly. Should he be heir? Is that important to her mom?
"Alright if that's what you want." Bryan muttered, staring at the door that had been passed by his mother.
...****************...
"You don't have to take me to college, Ken." Alicia exclaims. Ken's in front of his dorm building. I don't know where Ken slept last night, the guy hasn't told him.
"I want to talk to you." Ken took over the ontel bike from Alicia.
"Please sit comfortably in the back, Miss." continued Ken, with a smile that was so charming.
Alicia gave a small laugh, directly sitting on the side chair. Ken pedaled his bike on the sidewalk, this was Ken's first time riding an ontel bike. Fortunately, Alicia's bike was big enough for them to ride both.
Actually this bike is a birthday gift from his mother. Alicia asked for the biggest one because she wanted to ride a bike with Bryan. But her ex-fiance never wanted to, she said, wasting time.
Alicia hugged Ken's waist, thank God now this bike can be used to piggyback. Smelling Ken so distinctive was like the smell of a rose, making his heart calm.
"Ah your new Ken shirt?" Alicia just realized that Ken is not wearing the pink T-shirt he bought yesterday.
"No, it belongs to Areka."
"You slept with Areka?"
Ken just nodded. He stayed at the boys' dorm last night, in Areka's room alone. Because the owner of the room was away with that girl named Elena.
"Sore. There's class all day. Sorry yeah... Do you want me to skip?"
Ken pinched Alicia's arm. I disagree with the girl's bad idea.
"You'd be bored of Ken if there wasn't me." teased Alicia.
"No puny. I'm busy, too, Alicia." Ken smiled mischievously. Intentionally wanting to upset Alicia. If Ken's okay without the girl.
Alicia pouted, dissatisfied with Ken's reply, replying to Ken's waist stab. Ken laughed, holding Alicia's hand so as not to do so. Amused, they can fall because they lose their balance.
Along the way they cool themselves until they are not aware if it has been used as a spectacle. Precisely Ken, with his face and body he was very striking. The closer to the campus the more pairs of eyes are amazed by its good looks. Hysterical students like seeing a famous model or idol.
"Then I'll see you in the afternoon, Alicia." Ken waved his hand.
Alicia nodded, waving back.
After Alicia disappeared from his sight, Ken stared at the cynical horde of girls who had been watching them since. He doesn't like to be stared at lustfully by an insignificant 'donkey donkey' so.
It's not that the girls are getting hysterical. For those with such a sharp gaze Ken looks even more cool. But of course they did not dare to approach, Ken's cold aura as if telling them to stay away. The girl realized that Ken wasn't their level.
But who was the girl who was given a sweet smile by that cold man? Maybe his sister!
New trouble for Alicia is coming soon. People with charisma like Ken can be envious magnets for some stupid girls who are just selfish.
...****************...
After a long time of patience, Ken finally reached the mountain with thousands of degrees of heat, magma exploded explosively showing how much energy was stored in it.
"Your energy has gathered this much. Looks like you're gonna erupt soon. The 'donkeys' should thank me for delaying this eruption for the next hundred years."
Without a second thought Ken jumped to the hottest place on earth, before actually touching the fire, Ken's body was protected by a black sphere. It was that black sphere that absorbed the heat energy from the magma of the volcano and turned it into magic mana, stored evenly throughout the cell nucleus of the body.
After which his magic was fully charged Ken came out of the fiery magma with a fit body. Ken looked around, his eyes were as sharp as ever. He can see far ahead, between the trees he can see easily. Ken came down from this volcano in just two jumps.
It was time to find someone he could use. Thousands of years ago there was not a single earth creature that did not know him. For clan clans other than humans, they had a long life. Ken will seek out one of the survivors from a long time ago, then threaten him to become an ally.
"I've sensed incredible strength from a distance, as I expected, you can definitely break out of the seal itself. I'm sorry for being late, but I prepared everything for your new life here."
Ken turned his head to the side, his eyes staring intently at a man in a casual shirt who spoke at length, he did not know who it was and did not understand what he was saying.
This person was a creature, not a human but not a clan that he knew. Is it because there has been a lot of interbreeding so that there is a new clan created?
"You who?" Ken asked flatly.
The person with the handsome but unfamiliar face was glaring. Approaching and hugging his feet with arriving. Ken didn't pull over, for some reason he felt like he had a relationship with this strange man.
"You're so mean... How could you forget your most loyal subordinates. Have you lost your memory from being sealed for too long? I'm really sorry for not caring about you but I just got out 24 years ago."
Subordinate, who? Ken's forehead frowned. He doesn't remember having such a disgusting underling. His body is human, but the devil's blood runs in his cell.
"Lord.." the man called out, his eyes glazed over as if asking for forgiveness.
"Rafaela.." murmured Ken. He suddenly remembered the person who often looked at him amazed in the past. Crazy girl who ever begged to take a bath together.
Those glassy eyes turned into a happy twinkle.
"Rafael, sir... I'm a man now." The 24-year-old bowed, honoring his master.
That's right, that's disgusting. She had even changed gender, which is why Ken had a hard time remembering.
But this fellow came at the right moment, it seemed like he had already become a successful 'human. Ken can use it to be Alicia's guard and get the right job.
"What's your name now?" ask Ken.
The man knelt respectfully.
"I am Arean Trenta Damian, the illegitimate son of the Damian Group's owner. Although I am a child out of wedlock, but my mother is very dear to the great master there."
For the sake of hearing what Rafael said, Ken laughed.
"You're a human child now?"
Rafael or his human name is Arean it holds shame. It is indeed very disgusting, in addition to his changed gender he is also part of the weakest clan.
"You know how else. I escaped from the seal with the help of a desperate fetus as it continued to be given abusing drugs by its mother. I made a contract with him but his soul died instead. So I'm taking over her body now."
Ken laughed again, this time louder. Since Rafaela has not changed, she is a stubborn girl with many oddities. His nature is strange, his decision making is strange, his hobby that likes to collect human eyes is also strange.
Now, after a thousand passes his strangeness becomes so. He fused and used the human body as a container.
"As soon as I get my entire family estate. It will be yours, my lord."
But Ken doesn't care about that weirdness, all he needs is this kind of loyalty.
Absolute loyalty from a subordinate.
